Philadelphia plane crash latest: Black box recovered as crew and passengers in medical jet crash identified

The black box has been recovered from the medical jet that crashed in northeast Philadelphia on Friday, killing seven people, including all six passengers on board.

The device was found eight feet underground at the crash site near the Roosevelt Mall, the National Transportation Safety Board said on Sunday evening. The black box – also known as a cockpit voice recorder – remained in “decent shape,” sources told WPVI. The plane’s enhanced ground proximity warning system, which may contain flight data, was also recovered, the NTSB said.
